my soul.
Apparently, for some, humor is not the best medicine...in fact, it is more like a cancer. The kind that amuses you before lulling you into a painful coma while it consumes your soul. Unfortunately, that humor is mine and you may already be infected. I'm sorry, but I do not know how much longer you will be able to feel real happiness. God speed.
I have been told on more than one occasion, by more than one individual, that my humor "hurts." I...did not know this was possible. It's humor. To quote one of the most brilliant "people" I know (Wikipedia) "humor is the tendency of particular images, stories or situations to provoke laughter and provide amusement." How can laughter and amusement inflict pain? Other than that side cramp I get when I'm laughing so hard I no longer breath...but I'm pretty sure that pain comes from a lack of oxygen and not the actual joke. I could be wrong.
I know I can be kind of sarcastic (it's innate; I just have a dark soul...::shrugs:: what can be done? nothing.), but I don't mean any of what I say. Honestly, which is an ironic thing to say, I don't say truthful things...when joking that is, I stick to complete fiction. Plus I smile...A LOT...to show on a primal level that "this is all fun and games." You know, in a non-threatening way...which is also wrong because bearing your teeth for most species is a threat. I need to work on my body language (but that's an entirely different problem).
So, in all honesty, is anyone hurting from jovial banter I use in an attempt to give the world a small taste of the joy that fills my tiny soul? I REALLY want to know...seriously. You can even post anonymously...if you're a pansy...or just fear the barbs of my sword-like tongue. Please...help me, help you.
Please? Oh, and Smarthy(this is your new nickname...ask me what it means sometime)...I know this is now your favorite thing to say to me...but I want honesty, real honesty!

do i get a nickname?
well...for a response to this, read my blog (which was posted even before reading this post although the link to your hilariousness was created after reading this post).
Panda here. No not actually hurting because of your humor. I think that sometimes your complete falsehoods must hit a nerve of insecurities dwelling deep beneath where we mere mortals allow others to penetrate. Most of the time you make me laugh, a lot!
